Hi, I'm Vanessa <3

I've always loved making things with my hands, but air-dry clay opened up a whole new world of creativity for me.

I love experimenting, learning and finding little ways to make the creative process easier - and I'm excited to share what I discover along the way.

The story behind The real Nez

What startet with a love for air-dry clay has grown into a creative space where inspiration, curiosity and the joy of making come together.

Along the way, I received so many questions about air-dry clay - how to get started, what works best and how to make the creative process easier.

That's how the idea The real Nez began: a place where I can share what I've learned, answer your questions and create helpful things along the way.

I'm creating guides, templates and tools inspired by what I use myself and what I wish I had when I started.

And because there is always something new to discover, I've also fallen in love with pottery and working with clay.

My goal is simple: to make creating with clay easier, more accessible and, most importantly, more fun.
